Project description:Cwmystwyth is an abandoned lead mine site. The soil of this metalliferous mine site is inhabited by lead hyper-resistant Lumbricus rubellus earthworms. The nature of their resistance to heavy metal lead has not been elucidated in fine detail, especially within a tissue-specific context. Moreover, earthworms have yet to be studied using long read transcriptomic technologies. Hence, various tissues of a Cwmystwyth earthworm were dissected and long read RNA sequenced using the PacBio Sequel Ile system.
Project description:This study investigates the transcriptomic responses of Saccharomyces cerevisiae S96 normal and petite cells to 4-Methylcyclohexanemethanol (MCHM), a coal cleaning chemical spilled in the water supply of central West Virginia in 2014.
